That was ZTT, the record company. They had manifestos and were way into art and post-modernism. Pop music was a million miles better/smarter back then. You'll love this: http://www.zttaat.com/ima...p?catno=18 Welcome to the world of the 12"... | |

Prince was offended full stop that night. So many people laughed at him, there were rumours he was over in the UK to discuss touring but left in a huff | |

It was a joke, I remember it well. I was a massive FGTH fan and was great to see 2 of favourite artist on stage together. Not sure it actually bothered Prince that much if at all as he appeared stony faced all night. | |

Yeah, that was kinda his look for all award shows that year -- the bad-ass, pissed attitude to offset the ultra-fem wardrobe. | |

Trevor Horn is very well respected for his productions for ABC, FGTH, Grace Jones, Seal and more... But he was a singer too: "Video Killed The Radio Star" was a huge hit in 1979/ (1980?), for his band The Buggles, and this song was the first to be played when MTV began to air in the early 1980s. The Buggles has released 2 albums, I like them very much.. 1980's synth pop very well produced. Songs like Video Killed the radio star, Clean clean, Elstree, On TV, I am a camera... I just love both albums. "Living In The Plastic Age" and "Adventures In Modern Recording". Prince 4Ever. | |
